Supervalu have issued an urgent recall of prawns due to safety concerns.

The Irish retailer are recalling all packets of organic king prawns, as they may contain traces of sulphur dioxide.

According to the FSAI, the prawns may contain traces of sulphur dioxide that was not declared on the label or packaging which may trigger allergic reaction.

Updating customers on their website, the FSAI wrote: "Sulphur dioxide was not declared on the label of the above batches of SuperValu Organic King Prawns. This may make the batches unsafe for consumers who are allergic to or intolerant of sulphur dioxide or sulphites."

All 90g packs are being recalled in the store, with all use by dates affected.

In addition, Tesco are recalling two of its vegetable dips over fears they could trigger potentially fatal allergic reactions.

The supermarket's Pea and Spinach and Roasted Carrot and Chickpea dips contain milk which isn't clear from the label.

The FSAI advised: "Due to a manufacturing error the above date codes of Tesco Pea and Spinach Dip and Tesco Roasted Carrot and Chickpeas Dip may contain small quantities of milk. This may make the implicated batches unsafe for consumers who are allergic to or intolerant of milk or its constituents."

It comes after Dunnes Stores were forced to recall a batch of its slow roasted turkey slices in recent weeks as the implicated batch was labelled with an incorrect ‘use-by’ date.
